HUDSON RYE
Until the start of Prohibition, New York was known for it's Rye Whiskey, the basis for the classic and delicious Manhattan cocktail. Rye had not been produced in New York for over 80 years until a small grain farm in upstate NY decided to resurrect the storied history of NY Rye Whiskey. Tuthilltown whiskey, the distillers, are the only legal distillery that produces grain spirits in New York since Prohibition, and this is the first rye to be produced in that time. And it is also the newest fan favorite here at Trophy. This single batch Rye harks back to the days when upstate NY was littered with small grain farms whom distilled alcohol from new york grains and fruits. The small batch method the grain utilizes ensures the rye is immediately recognizable with it's smooth almost floral flavor. As with any true Rye, it is best prepared in the classic Manhattan cocktail, the sweet vermouth being a true compliment. So if you want a true taste of old NY, come on over the bridge and see why we like Manhattans more than Manhattan.

TEQUILA TIME!
Corralejo Reposado Triple Distillada Tequila $12
photo: John Barclay
In my opinion, the Corralejo Triple Distillada (the one in the round blue bottle) is the finest tasting Reposado at Trophy. Excellent, excellent tequila. Its extremely smooth, less smoky than the single distilled Reposado. Though it’s the easiest sipping, in my opinion, it also carries a livelier, purer and more powerful electric punch of aftertaste, due to the triple distillation, which I learned purifies the tequila to a fine balance before it becomes pure alcohol. Very savory, with a hint of lemon. And when compared to Don Julio Reposado, it makes the Don Julio taste like nail polish remover. Yes, its that smooth.
Corralejo Reposado Single Distillada Tequila $10
(the one in the straight blue bottle)

Still light and spicy like the triple distilled, but with a slightly more pungent aftertaste – a ghost of Agave sweetness. Excellent.
COCKTAIL SUGGESTIONS: Both can be served neat, or for the bourbon drinker in summer - with a few ice cubes and a lemon peel for a light refreshing summer drink.

"JACKSIDENTS MIGHT GET YOU FRUINED"

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
TROPHY (aka Stay Gold Gallery) Presents:
“Jacksidents Might Get You Fruined”
April 25th – July 2009
OPENING RECEPTION SATURDAY, April 25th, 2009, 7-10PM
TROPHY (aka Stay Gold Gallery) is pleased to present the Spring 2009 installment series of exhibitions in our outdoor sculpture garden. This show will feature works by Jack Warren & Tom Fruin, both long time friends and collaborators. The opening reception will be held on Saturday, April 25th and the exhibition will continue through July 2009.
A collector of things, Warren sees the world most clearly in its abandoned objects. Using “found” language culled from pages of abandned books, journals, magazines, historical files and movies. Warren translates the broken-down content into a visual languange of his own. His viewpoint is also evident in the individual collages that are nothing short of reconstructions-perhaps imagined reanimations- of fragments left behind, stacks of magazines, piles of printed words, broken totems of our commerce and our religion, images stripped of their context, scraps from the table of a great and troubled feast. What comes through in this work is something both spiritual and tactile, a translation of our most common expressions into a language made up of symbolic glyphs and mathematical formations.
Fruin, too, works primarily with found detritus. He searches for items that have been imbued with history and use, making small alterations to bend the material for his own use. Known primarily for his quilts and flags made from found drug bags, these works signal yet another return to the streets. The target this time: street signs and found metal. Filing cabinets and discarded deli signage have become three-dimensional structures referencing buildings devoid of ornamentation; they are presented on metal arms like tapas at a dinner party for our scrutiny.
The accumulation evidenced by both Fruin’s and Warren’s works suggest a psychological understanding of the world, and through the resulting pieces both artists attempt to sort out what was left behind and reinvent it, giving it new meaning and new life.
